Summer Vacations!

This summer was so much fun. Firstly, the fam was in Utah most of the summer which was unfortunate for them but very exciting for me and Britt! We had a great time lounging about the pool, loving Baby Indie, and of course taking our usual trip to California. Some unexpected goodness however, came from my trip with Danen to Lake Powell and our joint family vacation with the Jones's to Maui!
Lake Powell was so exciting for me because I had never been there before! Danen's family has a house boat and they go there for about a week every summer, so I was lucky enough to join the Radman's and tag along to the lake. We slept on a house boat and for three days did nothing but play in the water, attempt to skii, and get nice and tan! It was so relaxing and such a fun trip that I didn't want to come home. Fortunately for us, we weren't going home- we were heading to California to meet up with Holly and the gang!
Cali was fun as usual... it never dissapoints! We took Danen to all of our favorite places to eat: Ruby's, Coco's, Conca'Dora and other such treasures. We went to Disneyland one day, and had a great time there surprisingly the lines weren't too bad even though it was the middle of summer! And on Danen's 24th b-day we went to the beach to lounge about, and eat greasy corn dogs! It was a fabulous week!
Oh, Hawaii! How I love thee! We were in Maui for one week and it didn't seem like long enough. We sat at the pool every morning (well after mom and shelly had made us excercise!) We would walk down the beach to get a Haagen Daaz, possibly eat at Hula Grill, or Leilani's and then head back to the pool. What a week! The kids even took surfing lessons, and they did great at it! Dad, Gregory, Chloe and Me went Scuba Diving! It was so neat to go in the ocean... we saw crabs, giant sea turtles, all kinds of fish, and coral! I definitely was sad to come home from that trip, especially since I had to start school the very next day! But oh well, life goes on. Well that was the highlights of my summer vacations!
